The Facebook-centric HTC Salsa gets its debut release Comments

Yeah, it's way too expensive. Here in the philippines its apprx. 22k (Php) according to sulit.com. HTC has the HTC desire (version 2.2) here at the same pricing. It's not yet officially launched here. The features is really in mid-range scale. Although the hardware is really stunning. Hope the price hets cheaper.

I own a Touch Diamond. When I bought I was like 100th owner of the mobile overall in India. It cost me 25k ( around $500 ). Still the price is around $450. With this as the case and very rare HTC Service centers, combined with very low user awareness ( 95% of the people here still thinks my touch diamond as a cheap Chinese Mobile !!! ) Its tough for HTC to get a large User base in India

its way too overpriced.. It should have costed no more than 15000($326) at start.. We already have the galaxy sl retailing for 18000($392) and it beats the htc salsa in nearly all aspects.. This phone can only compete with mid-lower range android phones like the galaxy ace..

Its very happy to hear, high end mobile manufacturer are giving first priority to india, like htc salsa, galaxy s2. Apple should no more treat india as dumping station, launching their products one yr later
